PEACE BE WITH YOU MEANING FREE
Jesus can forgive your past and set you free from it. He would offer to that person the spoken words, “Peace be with you.” God can speak wholeness into our past, and help us overcome it. This is what I believe Christ would say to a person struggling to overcome a past that was not pleasant. When Jesus says, “Peace be with you,” it’s more than just a cliché’, it’s a pronouncement of peace over a person’s whole being.
But with God’s help you can be at peace with it. Your past isn’t likely to be forgotten anytime soon. Jesus Christ can help you get past your past. It means that you can be at peace with your past. What do the words “Peace be with you” mean. The words spoken by Jesus to His disciples still need to be heard today, “Peace be with You.” It’s a pronouncement of well being and wholeness.
